As we move into increasing storm intensity we are facing more extreme conditions, Stronger, lighter, faster and more cost effective materials are needed to withstand greater pressures. We're facing typhoons, tornadoes and hurricanes that have had more devastating impacts than ever before. The number of displaced people and people with inadequate housing is swiftly multiplying and expected to exceed three billion by 2020. Advanced material solutions will help provide faster, affordable and resilient housing with super tolerance.. NanoArchitech evolved from the work of John Edward Orava who was summoned by FEMA and HUD to address the devastation of 9-11 and Hurricane Katrina. He developed new materials in collaboration with Argonne National Labs and Ferme Labs to meet the need.  Often agencies will come into a disaster zone with temporary housing to meet immediate needs, when long lasting solutions really need to come into play. Typically victims are forgotten in a few years living in inadequate housing or tents. Thanks to advances in robotics and 3D printing, housing can now be constructed very quickly that will withstand future threats .
